Does Mac OS X10.6.8 woks with iCloud?

Do I need to purchase and upgrade to Lion 10.7.2 from my current OS SnowLeopard v10.6.8 - in order to see iCloud under my System Preferences - still showing MobilMe?? How do I remove this and add iCloud? I thought this would be automatic when I converted to iCould......
I'm having trouble with syncing my calendar on my mac to iCloud and iPhone calendar. I just recently moved everything from mobilme to iCloud, but now my calandar wont sync correctly.
When I add an event on my iphone caledar, it will appear on iCloud but not sync to my Mac calendar.

iCloud only works with 10.7.2 or later, so no, it does not work with Snow Leopard.

Does Mac OS X Mountian Lon come with the iMac

It will come with new machines after some period of time since the release. Usually within one month. If you buy one that does not have Mountain Lion installed you are able to get a free copy:

I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud

I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud. Any Suggestion?

perfect. ok do the following:
settings > mail, contacts, calendars > go into the exchange account. You should have an email in the account field...[email protected] or [email protected], etc.... I am assuming you don't remember the password to this exchange account so once you know the email, you can go to email providers site and click on forgot password and you will go through the steps to get a new password. Once you do this, you will need to go back into your "exchange account " and the field that has the exchange email > touch the > to open settings. Change the password to your new password you got from above. Once you do this, you can add the exchange account to your ipad and all of your contacts will sync to both devices.
Please confirm.

Numbers on my Mac says waiting, doesn't update with iCloud

I've tried resetting my devices and data on iCloud, and restarted all my devices, but that has not resolved the issue.

Hi sbsturm,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iOS device is in the process of uploading the spreadsheet to iCloud. The article below should help as it provides more information about about the Waiting alert and troubleshooting suggestions.
Numbers for iCloud beta: If a spreadsheet doesn’t appear in Numbers for iCloud beta
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12809
If a Numbers spreadsheet created on an iOS device doesn’t appear in Numbers for iCloud beta
Check the following:
Make sure your device is connected to the Internet.
Verify that your iCloud account is set up on your iOS devices, and that Documents & Data in iCloud preferences is turned on for each.
Verify that iCloud is turned on for the Numbers app on each device where you want to access the spreadsheet. Tap Settings, then Numbers, then turn on iCloud.
Verify that your iOS devices have iOS 7 or later installed in order to have the latest version of Numbers installed.
Make sure the spreadsheet isn’t in the process of being uploaded. Open Numbers on your iOS device. If the spreadsheet appears with an upload pending icon , it’s being uploaded. When the upload process is complete, the spreadsheet should appear in Numbers for iCloud beta.
Verify that your iCloud account password is correct, and that it’s updated on your iOS devices and computers.
Check your remaining iCloud storage space on your iOS device. Tap Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
If you need additional space, you can either purchase more, or you can delete one or more of your spreadsheets stored in iCloud. For information on how to purchase storage, go to iCloud Help.
If a Numbers spreadsheet created on a Mac doesn’t appear in Numbers for iCloud beta
Check the items listed in the above task, as well as the following:
Verify that your iCloud account is set up on your computer, and that Documents & Data in iCloud preferences is turned on in System Preferences.
On your Mac, make sure the spreadsheet isn’t in the process of being uploaded. Open Numbers on your Mac, or choose File > Open if Numbers is already open. If the spreadsheet appears with a small iCloud icon or the wordwaiting next to it, it’s being uploaded. When the upload process is complete, the spreadsheet should appear in Numbers on your iOS device and in Numbers for iCloud beta.
Make sure the spreadsheet isn’t an unsupported file type. Currently, Numbers for iCloud beta supports only Numbers, Microsoft Excel, or CSV file types.

DOES MAC OSX 10.6.8 WORK WITH PRO TOOLS 9HD?

I'VE UPGRADED MY OPERATING SYSTEM TO OS X 10.6.8 AND HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH PRO TOOLS 9HD EVER SINCE. IS ANYONE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND ARE THERE ANY SUGGESTIONS? IF I NEED TO GO BACK DOWN TO OS X 10.6.7 TO RUN PRO TOOLS, HOW WOULD I DO THAT. BUT MY MAIN CONCERN IS, IS THERE ACTUALLY A COMPATIBILITY ISSUE WITH OS X 10.6.8 & PRO TOOLS? AND INFORMATION OR KNOWLEDGE ON THE SUBJECT MATTER WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I can't not link my mac to my iPad or iPhone with iCloud.

I can't seem to have my mac linked via icloud to my ios devices. When I buy a song on my ipad, it will imediately show up on my iphone and vice versa. However, nothing shows up on my mac itunes. As well, if I buy a song through itunes on my mac, nothing shows up on either of the ios devices. I have icloud turned on on my mac. I've check and triple checked all the settings and all seem to be correct. Any help would be greatly apprciated.
Thanks!

Hi...
Launch iTunes on your Mac.
From the menu bar click iTunes > Preferences then select the Store icon.
Select Music, Apps, or Books, then click OK.

Does iPhoto 9.6 work with iCloud Photo Library at all?

I have iOs 8.1, but I have not enabled iCloud Drive or iCloud Photo Library yet, and I have not updated to Yosemite yet. I don't want to activate those until I know how photos between thee mac and iPhone will work after they are enabled.
Does iPhoto 9.6 interact at all with iCloud Photo Library? Does it even "see" iCPL photos similar to PhotoStream? Can it import from there? Do any of the crops and edits come through in iPhoto from the iOS photos app (whether imported from the iCPL or even via direct d/l from the phone via usb?

So what are you guys doing to manage your photos until the OSX Photos app come out? Just not using iCloud Photo Library at all I assume?
Can you use iCloud photo library but still manually import photos into iPhoto from USB import?
You can view your iCloud Photo Library (Beta) and download from iCloud Photo Library (Beta) at https://beta.icloud.com or https://www.icloud.com on your Mac, if you click the "Photos" icon. Click the "?" mark, to view the help for "Photos". But you cannot yet upload directly from your Mac to this library, even if the iCloud Photos Help is saying otherwise.
You can download to your mac from your devices using USB, but with iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled on your iPad or iPhone, you can no longer sync photos to them using iTunes Photo sync. So it is hard to get any photos onto your devices at the moment, other than using Photo Stream. To upload photos to your iPad/iPhone using iTunes you have to disable iCloud Photo Library. And the synced photos will be erased, when you enable iCloud Photo Library again.

HT1386 when does a merge sync with icloud

I have added a second Iphone to my i tunes & merged the contacts from it to contacts on my mac but it won't synchronise with icloud. Previously when I added my original iphone to contacts in outlook (windows XP) all my contacts on outlook were deleted and I ended up with a copy of my empty contact folder from the iphone. What am I doing wrong?

On My Mac is a local account, it does not sync to iCloud, use the iCloud account for all contacts/calendars you wish to be available on your devices.
If you are actually using 10.6.7 and not Lion this will not work at all, iCloud services require Lion (10.7.x) or 3rd party software (Soho Organizer) in order to subscribe on Snow Leopard (10.6.x)

Cannot get started with iCloud without configuring my Apple ID via a Mac device

I do not own any Mac devices whatever. I'm more Android / BlackBerry. For example, Google plays nice with Mac in gDrive etc. PC users can share OneDrive cloud docs with Apple email addys -- also without issue. Why does Mac choose to not play nice with others?
This is a problem, when someone tries to share something with me on iCloud. I have an Apple ID but am told that it is not fully valid until it has been configured via a Mac device -- hence the loop that I find myself in. Do advice on a workaround.

You can only open an iCloud account using your Apple ID on a Mac or an iPad/iPhone etc.

My iPad and Mac aren't synching. It used to automatically with iCloud.

My iPad and Mac dont seem to be synching with iCloud. Also, when I connected the iPad via the USB it stayed on Step 2 of the synching process and never got past there.

I found the answer... to disable "Find my iPad" first before trying to delete the iCloud account, and the password was accepted. When I tried deleting the iCloud account before disabling "Find my iPad", the password wasn´t accepted.

Safari 7 Bookmarks and Read List Not Synching with iCloud

Safari does not synch bookmarks or reading list with iCloud. Cloud tabs does work. Everything else works.
When I turn the sync setting on/off in iCloud (control panel) it asks me if I want to merge and I say yes each time. No change. I can add bookmarks normally.
I did the checklist Apple suggests - and made sure I was linked to teh right account, have internet access, ect... The only thing I can not confirm is port numbers - but this machine is at work, next to my other iMac that is working perfectly (on Mavs too)
So far I've done each of these 2-5 times each:
Restarted
Reset all in Safari Pref
Cleared all extensions
Unlinked my iCloud account in Control Panel>iCloud - Safari
Unlinked the entire account and deleted everything (3 times)
Deleted all traces of Safari; library, plsit, etc. (except the program - not allowed)
re-linked to Keychain (3 times)
Out of ideas
Any suggestions appreciated
Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks in advance

Having the same problem as you David, I've just about gone nuts trying to solve it but Bookmarks and Reading Lists are not syncing across my iPad Mini, iPhone and Mac. When I've dug into the console files on my Mac it's reporting that the SafariDAVClient is crashing like a fiend, seems to be trying to access a file that either doesn't exist or was moved o_O
Anyone have any ideas? I've also resorted to Apple's recommendations as well as to solutions posted around the forums, with no luck whatsoever. I've even edited and purged my bookmarks down to only the stuff I really think I should keep. Also tried to keep it empty and adding a fresh new bookmark. Nada...

Can I uninstall iTunes now I have my iPhone set to sync with iCloud?

I decided that I wanted to completely phase iTunes out of my life now that I really can't see a need for it. I now have my iPhone set up to automatically create a backup to the iCloud. This will obviously make it easier when buying a new iPhone or iDevice. However, I need to be sure that I'm safe before I uninstall and remove iTunes from my PC.
Does having my iPhone set to sync with iCloud in settings now mean that iTunes can be made redundant and mean I can safely now remove it from my PC? Will all of my apps and music be safely backed up too?

I have reconsidered my situation and realised it would probably be more wise to hold onto iTunes. The only reason I wanted to get rid of it is because it uses up space on my hard drive unnecessarily. I also don't have any music on my iPhone that I did not buy via iTunes, is Match the only way to make sure your iTunes purchases are backed up to iCloud? When I buy a new iPhone and set it up the new way, I won't get my iTunes purchases automatically installed again?
My other issue is that I soon plan to do a fresh install of my OS when I purchase Windows 8. I will obviously lose iTunes and didn't want to have to go through the trouble of setting it up again if I really don't have to.
But I also today realised the only way to do a restore should anything go wrong and the only way to request a refund on a purchase is through iTunes, which makes it more worth while keeping around.

My mac's keyboard is not working with my mac.the green light blinks and i cannot get onto my mac. everything on the support questions does not help because i cant go on the mac and i cant sign in

my mac's keyboard is not working with my mac.the green light blinks and i cannot get onto my mac. everything on the support questions does not help because i cant go on the mac and i cant sign in

If you can't sign in, then you can't troubleshoot and/or pair the keyboard until after that........ so, for that, you will need to borrow someone's USB wired keyboard in order to get signed in and to the Keyboard Bluetooth Preferences.
